Too many buzzwords

The article has too much marketing fluff and needs cleanup. While I'm sure someone got paid a lot of money to figure out a way to associate a future RF technology to "blockchain" and "artificial intelligence" to make some company's share price go up, it doesn't help the reader very much.

Fully agree.

The blockchain reference here seems spurious. The linked paper first and foremost is not an official ITU-T or 3GPP document, but rather an academic paper. Further the paper is very light on detail in terms of how blockchain can actually contribute to improvement in the areas it says it will, and offers no substantive evidence that the relevant standards bodies see it as a key part of what will be branded '6G.

I believe it should be removed unless any official documentation is available to back up the claim. Topatopranks (talk) 02:03, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I feel the AI reference should also be removed unless there is a similar standards document describing how it is planned to be used for "local spectrum licensing, spectrum sharing, infrastructure sharing, and intelligent automated management". Topatopranks (talk) 02:05, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have made some edits to that paragraph to try and improve the article now. Topatopranks (talk) 18:32, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

1TB/s communication over 1km requires a source

In "Terahertz and millimeter wave progress" 4th paragraph they state: "Chinese researchers (...) transmitted 1 terabyte of data over a distance of 1 km in a second". The referral is to an article, rather than a scientific paper, that states the same claim. The Chinese research is about using vortex beams to encode data in an extra dimension, which may provide up to 3x data transmission rate. They allegedly use ~100GHz waves to transmit 8000Gbits/s - such a claim if physically improbable (as far as I know, not an expert), and for the very least requires more than a pop-sci article. 212.25.82.123 (talk) 10:19, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
